**Background of PRN Recombinant Proteins**
Pertactin (PRN), a key virulence factor of *Bordetella pertussis*, the causative agent of whooping cough, has been a focal point in vaccine research since the late 20th century. PRN is an outer membrane protein that facilitates bacterial adhesion to host respiratory epithelial cells, playing a critical role in infection. Its inclusion in acellular pertussis vaccines (aP) in the 1990s marked a shift from whole-cell vaccines (wP) due to improved safety profiles, though efficacy concerns later emerged.
Recombinant PRN proteins are produced via genetic engineering, where the *prn* gene is cloned into expression systems (e.g., *E. coli* or yeast) to enable large-scale, pure antigen production. This method overcomes challenges in isolating PRN from *B. pertussis* cultures, ensuring consistency for vaccines. Structurally, PRN contains immunogenic regions, notably the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif, which mediates host cell binding and elicits protective antibody responses.
However, recent decades have seen the emergence of PRN-deficient *B. pertussis* strains, particularly in countries using aP vaccines. This adaptation, potentially driven by vaccine-induced selective pressure, has raised concerns about long-term vaccine efficacy. Researchers now explore updated formulations, including engineered PRN variants or multi-antigen approaches, to address pathogen evolution.
Beyond pertussis vaccines, PRN recombinant proteins are studied for applications in diagnostics, therapeutics, and understanding bacterial pathogenesis. Their role in immune evasion mechanisms and host-pathogen interactions remains an active research area. Despite challenges, PRN continues to be a model antigen for studying recombinant protein applications in vaccinology and bacterial adaptation.
